Forever Dance

Go inside
Coincide
Whatever makes it feel
Like it's real
Talk to god
Talk to Mom
Whatever makes you know
You're on your own
Where are you?
Are you somewhere I can't see?
Life goes on, that's the hard part, life goes on
Life goes on, that's the worst part, life goes on
Hope you are
Not too far
to live outside the realm of the past
Astronauts
Whiskey shots
We're spinning out in space, forever dance
You don't like anyone
You don't want anyone
You don't need anyone

I found your sister in Austin and Denver
She's crossing the country to spread your dust
And I don't remember the things that I told her
I just know that it's not enough
But, Wendolyn,
Wendolyn
This ain't a song for him.
And every picture I flip through to find you
Still ain't the same as having you here
And every gesture up on social media's
like gentle, little whispers in our collective mourning ear
I'm head on down south now
head on down to Tennessee
I'm gonna find your family
Let them know they've always got a piece of me

Oh, all of your friends will let you down
There's just no avoiding it,
You might as well get used to it, it's ok, it's ok
You thought you knew them as well as the back of your hand
and your own hometown
But the back of their hand is all you're familiar with now
They don't know what you're going through,
They're too busy going through it too
Oh, your friends will let you down, have no regrets
and that smile on your lover's face,
will blow away and dissipate,
like smoke from your cigarettes
just like the money you made to invest in things to burn
you just keep walking crookedly
while the world takes another tilted turn
There are no guitars in the future, just computers.
And, the folks in your heart,
you won't see them, but you'll never be apart.
Oh, all of your friends will let you down
as long as all of your friends are still around.

You Will Come Back to Me
01:25
|

Play your part,
If you can start it, I'd really like to see
Do what you will, and I will stay still,
and you will come back to me
Every year goes aching by
and you're more and more in need
Show me how, you know how
You're gonna show me
You've made your point
It's not a point, but I know what you mean
Do what you will, and I will stay still,
and you will come back to me
Show me how, you know how,
you will come back to me
you will come back to me.

I hear all the old singers all call you out by name
They are somehow right about you in every single way
I know someday you'll wind up with an older man
I'll always be too young to understand
While commissioning your entourage,
they will christen you in camouflage
'Cause you'd never want the world to see
that you were once at war with me.
You're still the first one I'd call
When I just don't want to be here at all
The queen of the underground
is giving me the runaround
We'd be drinking from your golden cup
if you just decided to wake up.
Dance with me tonight
before you leave me for some foreign guy
Please pour me one more drink
and pull be back before I pass the brink
I need to get out of here,
help me get out of here.
